bpf: Optimize rcu_barrier usage between hash map and bpf_mem_alloc.
User space might be creating and destroying a lot of hash maps. Synchronous rcu_barrier-s in a destruction path of hash map delay freeing of hash buckets and other map memory and may cause artificial OOM situation under stress. Optimize rcu_barrier usage between bpf hash map and bpf_mem_alloc: - remove rcu_barrier from hash map, since htab doesn't use call_rcu directly and there are no callback to wait for. - bpf_mem_alloc has call_rcu_in_progress flag that indicates pending callbacks. Use it to avoid barriers in fast path. - When barriers are needed copy bpf_mem_alloc into temp structure and wait for rcu barrier-s in the worker to let the rest of hash map freeing to proceed.
